The song blew up crazy because of the following:

Kanye co sign. Def Jam's relationship with top DJs. The ability to push the record to the entire market / service it to *all* radio stations. Placement through various media sources. Well placed tweets from taste makers referencing the song. Using connections to get writers at sports shows to pen jokes including the song.

For all you guys who want rappers to forever to be independent, to keep it pure, and to hustle out of their trunk talking shyt on major labels.....this is what they do. If they get the right record and by the luck of the music gods a song gets mildly popular they can take it to the next level.

I am an old head to me it sounds just like Future record but it definitely is catchy. Sometimes songs take a life if their own and take off without any clear explanation.

Song was popping way before the Kanye cosign breh.
People listened out of curiosity and it's an actual banger. Even people that don't like future enjoy Panda...you can't explain away people liking things, and radio servicing played a minor part. Song's organic.

I think it's a combination of a lot of good points previously posted and the fact that he actually says "Panda"

A panda is such a unique animal when have you ever heard someone use a panda on a track b4? :ohhh:

Everytime he says Panda it actually sounds kind of brainwashing :lupe:

At the least to the point were you actually picture a Panda and not a black guy from Brooklyn. :jbhmm:

I missed my calling working in the music industry :to: I don't love the song but I get why it's a hit.

This song was made for the dabbin / vine dance clip moment we're in.
